Today I was an epic nerd and found myself at the Palo Alto Apple stores at 6AM in the morning, and also standing in line for literally hours for the new 3G iPhone with my coworker Jill. There were many bugs on the operations side of the 3G iPhone launch, but the atmosphere at the Palo Alto locations at least was very upbeat.




3 and a half hours and $200 later, Jill has a new 3G iPhone!

I used my dcam to take a video of the line at the Stanford Shopping Center Apple store at around 8AM this morning:

And seriously, can the flowers in the cement planters at Stanford Shopping Center be more annoyingly perfect?
